CH 130

The sun shines on you, and the wind turns warm. The feeling of floating lightly is magical, much softer than skydiving and even a little less exciting.

"Have you been here before?" Di Xingchen asks Duan Yihua.

Duan Yihua gave a "hmm" and said, "This gliding base is the most famous in the West Side, and there is a golden air strip here."

A gust of wind caused them to sway slightly, their bodies changed direction, and Di Xingchen found he could no longer see Pei Xu and the others.

What should he talk to Duan Yihua about?

He can't seem to think of anything to talk to Duan Yihua about.

He doesn't know anything about Duan Yihua, except that he owns a chain of milk tea shops that are doing great business. Duan Yihua has very little contact with him, and is often a transparent person, not even as lovable as Wen Nuo, or as Lin Qingning, who makes his presence felt by being an outsider.

If Hu Ying and Huo Cheng are like spirits and Pei Xu and Yan Zhi are like soft drinks, Duan Yihua is like a bottle of water in a love story.

Di Xingchen felt that this was probably the only date he would ever have with Duan Yihua.

If that counts as a date.

On reflection, he thought it might not be necessary for them to talk about anything, but it would be nice to float together in the air as quietly as they were at the moment.

Duan Yihua was really good at it, the line they flew was not very high and usually only stayed in the air for about 10 minutes, but Duan Yihua managed to stay in the air for almost 20 minutes before landing thanks to his excellent skills.

At the moment of landing, the two of them were in a unison of pace and inertia, so smooth that the staff next to them asked Di Xingchen, "Is this really your first time paragliding?"

Di Xingchen smiled and said, "It's not a bad performance haha."

"Quite OK!"

Duan Yihua smiled at Di Xingchen, who smiled so brightly, with a clean and youthful air, the sun shining on his snow-white face, his eyes so bright, the cleanest and brightest eyes he had ever seen in real life.

The difference between the two of them is by no means just ten years in physical age, but they are also completely different psychologically.

Di Xingchen said as he sipped his water and looked behind his, "I wonder who's back there."

Duan Yihua unscrewed the mineral water in his hand and looked behind him to see someone in a paraglider slowly descending towards them.

Di Xingchen then waved his hand hard towards the sky.

It didn't take them long to see who was coming, it was Hu Ying and Huo Cheng.

Hu Ying and Huo Cheng were in a bit of a mess when they landed, Hu Ying ran straight into Huo Cheng, but Huo Cheng was strong and sturdy enough, they stumbled and finally came to a steady stop, Hu Ying struggled to get up from Huo Cheng: "Only nine minutes? Brother Huo is too heavy, otherwise I would have been able to fly for a few more minutes!"

Di Xingchen and Duan Yihua reached out to pull them both up, but Huo Cheng was excited and said with a smile, "It was pretty exciting, I want to come back later!"

Yan Zhi and Lin Qingning landed next, and compared to them, Yan Zhi's landing was so easy and beautiful, and Lin Qingning was so well matched that they barely stumbled, maintaining their usual graceful image.

Hu Ying looked a little jealous.

Yan Zhi has maintained his persona from start to finish! he seems to have everything under control, doesn't panic, and accomplishes everything beautifully.

" Pei Xu and Wen Nuo at last?" Di Xingchen asks.

Lin Qingning said, "Wen Nuo is a bit scared, I don't know if they will both fly yet."

"It should be quite easy for Pei Xu to take Wen Nuo," says Hu Ying. Hu Ying says.

"How did you two fly?" Yan Zhi asked Di Xingchen, "It looks to me like it took quite a long time."

" Brother Duan was great. We were up there flying for about 20 minutes." Di Xingchen said.

"I can stay in the air for half an hour at most!" Hu Ying immediately interjected.

Lin Qingning then laughed and patted Hu Ying on the shoulder.

They waited for a while in the same place and then saw Pei Xu floating over with Wen Nuo.

"Brother Pei is very stable." Hu Ying looked on and said.

Di Xingchen looked up into the sky and saw Pei Xu pulling the manoeuvring ring down slowly, the sun was already in the middle of the sky, the daylight was a bit harsh and after the blue paraglider had blocked out the sun he could finally see the person underneath.

Pei Xu clearly has longer legs than Wen Nuo and is cool in all black and wearing a helmet.

Wen Nuo was holding back the whole time, but when he was about to land he finally couldn't help but scream out.

The huge paraglider cast a shadow on the ground and Wen Nuo's legs went limp just as his feet hit the ground. ......"

But he was only halfway through his sentence when Wen Nuo tripped him up.

Pei Xu shielded Wen Nuo's head and fell to the ground, but because of the huge inertia, he went forward several metres, which scared the staff.

Hu Ying and Huo Cheng all rushed up and worked together to tear the paraglider away from Pei Xu, who was still shielding Wen Nuo with his arms and had bruises on his face.

"Are you guys okay?!"

"Are there any injuries?"

Wen Nuo's face was still white and he couldn't even stand up. Pei Xu, covered in dirt, shook his head and said, "I'm fine."

His cheek was cut and seeping with blood, and the right half of his face was covered in dirt.

"Are you really all right?" Hu Ying they asked.

"It's okay." Pei Xu said and looked over at Di Xingchen, who was not able to get to the front of the crowd. Guo Bing and the others came over and the scene was a mess.

Wen Nuo's face gradually regained its colour and he kept apologizing to Pei Xu: "Sorry, sorry, I ......"

"It's okay." Pei Xu tapped him on the shoulder and emerged from the crowd.

He smiled and glanced at Di Xingchen.

"You flush it out." Di Xingchen said.

Pei Xu bent down straight away and Di Xingchen unscrewed the cap of the bottle and washed the wound on his face with mineral water, which was not deep and only broke the skin.

Di Xingchen didn't say anything, but Pei Xu herself replied, "It doesn't hurt."

"You two should let Dr. Zhang examine you properly again and treat the wound." Guo Bing said.

Wen Nuo suddenly burst into tears, blaming himself and feeling ashamed, and Lin Qingning took him by the shoulders and said, "It's okay, it's your first time, it's normal to be scared, just don't get hurt."

He was actually a bit afraid of heights, but since he was here, he wanted to give it a try, and since everyone else was playing, he didn't want to be the only one to make it special.

He was afraid of causing trouble, and crying was even more humiliating, and crying after making a mistake was even more speechless, but the more he thought about it, the more he wanted to cry, and he couldn't control it, and his face was red.

Dr. Zhang gave them a thorough examination and found that Pei Xu had minor abrasions on the lower edge of his pinky and right cheek and Hu Ying had an abrasion on his ankle, but everything else was fine.

As planned, they were to have a picnic by the river at noon, which was a short drive from where they had landed, about ten minutes by car. Wen Nuo and Pei Xu went back to change and the six of them went to the picnic site first.

The place was beautiful and the grass was green. To make the picnic more interesting, the programme team offered them a particularly simple one, asking them to build a cooker using stones from the river and to go fishing in the shallows themselves.

"A hero has finally come into his own." Huo Cheng took off his shoes and rolled up his trouser legs, "Fishing is my business!"

"I'm relying on Brother Huo for lunch today." Hu Ying said with a smile.

Huo Cheng was responsible for fishing, Yan Zhi for organising and cleaning the cooking utensils, Lin Qingning and Duan Yihua for setting up the tent, and Di Xingchen and Hu Ying for collecting firewood.

It didn't take two men to collect the firewood, Hu Ying fetched it all by himself.

Huo Cheng said, "Then you two can go.

Hu Ying is overjoyed. He had finally taken the initiative and succeeded in securing his own opportunity.

Lin Qingning sighs slightly on Hu Ying's behalf.

He looked at Hu Ying with a smug look on his face and clearly thought that he had earned this opportunity.

But as far as he can see, Huo Cheng, Yan Zhi, Pei Xu and even Wen Nuo and Duan Yihua are all treating Hu Ying better than before.

People are not as guarded against him as they were at the beginning.

This is not a good thing, it means that everyone thinks Hu Ying is out of luck.

It's a pity Hu Ying doesn't know it herself.

Hu Ying and Di Xingchen were chatting and collecting firewood in the woods when they heard a car drive by on the road above and stop at the junction shortly afterwards.

"It's probably Pei Xu and Wen Nuo coming." Di Xingchen said, straightening up.

They both looked down the path, holding firewood, and saw Pei Xu and Wen Nuo being led down the path by the staff.

Pei Xu and Wen Nuo also saw them and came towards them through the trees.

"What are you doing?" Pei Xu asked.

"It's collecting firewood." Di Xingchen says with a smile.

Wen Nuo bends down to pick up a branch from the ground and is a little embarrassed when he sees Di Xingchen and Hu Ying.

"Go ahead, Brother Huo is catching fish, it's fun, go and see!" Hu Ying said.

He wanted to get rid of Pei Xu and the others.

The solitude he'd managed to get!

Pei Xu asks, "How much do you want to pick up?"

"It's early, there are too few branches over here." Di Xingchen said.

"I just saw a dead tree that had fallen over the road." Pei Xu said.

Di Xingchen followed Pei Xu that way, and Hu Ying followed immediately.

What a joke, you want to take Di Xingchen away from him right under his nose!

Hu Ying looked at Wen Nuo and said with a smile, "Your eyes are all swollen."

Wen Nuo was even more embarrassed and kept smiling shyly. Hu Ying went up to him and patted him on the shoulder with a smile.

Leaves rustle beneath his feet and Di Xingchen glances at Pei Xu's face, where he has a band-aid on his cheek and one on his hand.

Pei Xu This hand is a disaster.

This is a famous picnic spot, and the branches of the fallen dead tree had basically been snapped off, the remaining branches were all a bit thick, Hu Ying kicked them directly, and was jolted back several steps after kicking them.

He broke it with his hand and then kicked it twice: "It's so sturdy."

The ripples do not move.

He was about to try a third time when Pei Xu stopped him with his arm and broke the branch with a kick.

It was a crisp, vicious kick that shook Di Xingchen to his core.

He feels that Pei Xu is a quiet and gentle person, but when the moment comes, his strength comes out.

Hu Ying is impressed.

Not to be outdone by Power Bae!

Pei Xu kicked a branch and Di Xingchen reached out to catch it.

Di Xingchen picked up a few broken twigs and followed Pei Xu out of the woods. When they reached the path, Di Xingchen stomped his feet and patted the dirt on his trouser legs, giving Pei Xu next to him a pat as well.

Di Xingchen's face was hot, he had just given Pei Xu a pat on the leg of his trousers, completely subconsciously.

But Hu Ying didn't even realise that anything was wrong, as he thought it was normal for Pei Xu to give him a pat on the leg with all the firewood he was carrying.

When the four of them returned to the river, Duan Yihua had set up their tent and Huo Cheng was still fishing in the river when Hu Ying shouted, "Brother Huo, have you got anything?"

Huo Cheng says: "The fish here are so tricky."

"You can't do it alone, let's give you a little help." Pei Xu put down the firewood and took off his jacket and shoes and socks. Di Xingchen also wanted to fish and took off his jacket and shoes and socks. Pei Xu looked at his feet, which were really small, probably about forty sizes, white and small compared to his big feet. He rolled up his trouser legs and said to Di Xingchen, "The water must be very cold."

Just as he finished speaking, he heard Huo Cheng say, "Xingchen, don't come down, the river is very cold."

"It's okay, I haven't caught any fish yet." "It's faster if you use the net to block it." Yan Zhi said and handed the net to Di Xingchen.

Di Xingchen walked barefoot into the river and the cold water made him shiver.

"It's really cool." He turns back to Pei Xu.

Hu Ying saw them all in the water and, not wanting to be left behind, he also took off his shoes and socks and ran down.

The four of them teamed up to rip the net apart, Huo Cheng with the harpoon in his hand, slapping the water with it over and over again, not succeeding the first time, so they did it again, a second time, a third time, excited each time they closed the net.

At the beginning, Huo Cheng, Hu Ying and Di Xingchen were the only ones calling, but later on Pei Xu became excited and kept laughing, and when it was time to close the net, he was staring at the water and calling along with Huo Cheng.

He was looking frozen.

"There it is, there it is, there it is!" Huo Cheng shouted excitedly, " Pei Xu, guard your side, don't let it get away, it's leaping over!"

"Ahhhhhhhhh." Hu Ying and Di Xingchen excitedly and nervously helped Pei Xu round up the fish. The three of them crashed into each other and Pei Xu panicked and grabbed it with his hands, holding the fish in his arms as he did so.

He was soaked to the skin, but he didn't feel the cold and excitedly gestured towards Di Xingchen and the others. The fish was so big, its tail kept flapping so hard that everyone was screaming and Di Xingchen shouted, "Hold on tight and get to shore!"

Pei Xu ran out of the water barefoot, his hair was wet, his face and neck were red and he was smiling brightly. Hu Ying and Di Xingchen then ran out of the water and the cameraman ran over to film them. The fish suddenly leapt out of Pei Xu's arms and Di Xingchen and Hu Ying jumped on it at the same time, and Di Xingchen ended up holding it. Duan Yihua clapped his hands and laughed, but as he did so, he quieted down and thought, "This is a real group of young people.

He is physically a young man, but his heart is not as young as they are.

With this big fish, plus the few small fish they had made up earlier and a bunch of small crabs, the lunch was in order.

But they paid the price too, with all four of them getting wet, especially Pei Xu, who was soaked through.

It was a good day for the sun and it was warming up towards noon. Pei Xu went to the back of the tent and took off his clothes, no towel, so he decided to dry them before putting them on. There was not a breeze behind the tent and it was warm.

Hu Ying went to the toilet and came back and asked, "Where is Brother Pei?"

"It's a change of clothes behind the tent." Huo Cheng said.

Hu Ying went to the river and washed his hands, squatted down next to it and said, "This fish is so fatty, it feels better than any restaurant made fish!"

Di Xingchen was busy cooking and could not get away for a while. When he saw that Pei Xu had not come out, he wanted to go and check on him, but felt that it would be too conspicuous.

What is he afraid of?

It seems like if it was anyone else, he might have run over to see it.

Because it was Pei Xu, he was afraid to go, which was strange.

He purses his lips as he brushes the grilled fish with the sauce, and the aroma fills the air.

"Almost done roasting, are we?" Hu Ying swallowed.

Di Xingchen then turned around and said, " Brother Pei ...... Pei Xu, come and eat the fish!"

After shouting, he blushed first. Wen Nuo said, "Are you too close to the fire?"

He smiled and said to Duan Yihua as they said, " Xingchen's face was baked red and flushed."

Also weirdly cute.

Di Xingchen snapped and stepped back.

Huo Cheng and Yan Zhi went to lay out the picnic mat and shortly afterwards Pei Xu came over wearing a rash vest.

His T-shirt had not yet dried, so he wore only a rash vest, zipped up to the collar. When Di Xingchen saw that his trousers were still wet, he moved to the side and said, "Squat down here and roast yourself."

Pei Xu says: "If you bake any more, you'll sweat."

"It's cold here in the morning and at night, but hot during the day." Hu Ying said and stood up, "Wash your hands and get ready for dinner."

Wen Nuo and the others started to bring food to the side of the tent, leaving Pei Xu crouching by the fire.

Pei Xu, his hair dry but a little dishevelled, his forehead still in locks, a Band-Aid on his cheek, his nose high, his brow bones firm, the backs of his hands floating with veins but his fingers long and bony, helped turn the grilled fish over and said, "It smells so good."

Subwoofer.

"And you don't look at who's baking it." Di Xingchen said as he stared at the grilled fish.

"I caught the fish, you grilled it." Pei Xu says, "We go perfectly together."

Di Xingchen stood up and ran to the river to wash his hands.
